Nearly as useful as half of my posts!!!!

Changing the top mounts makes a quicker job as there is no need to take them off the old struts.

You will almost definitely need new rear bump stops as they don't seem to last 5 minutes.

It's also a good idea to do the top mounts, big wishbone bushes and ARB droplink bushes as has already been mentioned. These items are the most prone to wear in my experience.

You still need the shouldered nuts of the top of the bumpstop though.

I went the full 9yards...

New wishbone bushes

New ARB bushes

New top mounts front and rear

New ARB drop links

New bolts

etc

Spent a good weekend on it but it drove like new after.

To be honest honest assess the car before you do it, see what 'she' needs.

Legend! Been trying to draw up a list of what to do myself seeing as everything will be ripped out. Did you not bother with the track rod end or not really that big a milage on yours?
